How can there even be a question of what he was doing there? He has to hit the ball and i don't think it was possible to hit it without fouling and NOT have it drop. That's poor officiating.

Playing at my local yesterday on a table that was *covered* in dark blue and white marks. They just recovered all their tables in the last 2 or so months. The rails always end up super greasy/sticky too. I swear they only wipe the rails down and never actually clean them.

I never play for money. Which apparently means no decent player want to play. Had a few ask me about $50-100 sets when i started going back to the local house. I told them i don't play for money, but i'll play friendlies with anyone. Don't even get the time of day now... so lame.

Was just thinking about this on Friday: I was at Jimmy's and a pair of siblings were playing at a table by me (actually playing, not goofing off). The younger was barely taller than the table :LOL:. Rare, but really cool to see.(y)(y)

The root of it is really just depth. We have three 800s in the US. Asia and Europe can line them up out the damn venue. How that can be changed is up for debate. Short term: "poaching" players, sounds like Vitaliy may be with us next year. Long term: who tf knows...

They replaced 8 of the older GCs by the cafe with 10(?) Diamond 7-footers. The rest of the GCs (26, i think) have been recovered in the last few months.

Same here in the Twin Cities: Loads of leagues with all kinds of players, but it's almost entirely beginners and lower skill players and they're all on bar boxes. Jimmy's and Shooters are/have both replaced big tables with Diamond bar boxes. Love that there are lots of people playing, but hope...

Wish more places did tourneys like this (personally prefer scratch though). The house closest to me does Monday Open and Wednesday HDCP tournaments, but they don't start until 1900CT and usually run until 0100-0200... Last 2 times I've tried: - Open: 1st round BYE, sat there for 1:15 before my...

I've ordered plenty from them, but you shouldn't trust any unofficial channels when buying stuff. I'd say call/email them directly and ask.

Are you going to be selling these as a set once the DigiBall comes out?

Was finally able to watch Day 4 last night. Disappointing, but not really surprising. Europe is Europe and the crowd getting into it with Jayson just makes him stronger. He thrives on that. FSR is still excellent in crunch time, Alcaide is the consistent tactician, Kaci has been really...

Dove+.... Currently the Aramith ball cleaner by hand. Does a really good job of getting marks off the CB.

Seconded. Why spend the money on something that's just going to sit in a case or hang on the wall? I have 2 main cues that i play with, but they're identical other than the pin and appearance. Same shaft, tip, weight, balance, grip. I love that i can grab either of them and not feel the...

Dammit FatBoy! Why'd you go and buy all of em??? 🤣🤣🤣

Everyone thinks they can do it better when pros miss. Reality is just the table would humble 90+% of the pool world even without the crowd, pressure, and competition. This year has shown that anyone* can win a short race format. Just look at Fedor and SVB. They're marathoners that will beat you...

I'm loving this. Sweating in my seat watching the best* go at it. Not sure about anyone else, but watching these guys makes me want to play more. Some of the shots and safes played thus far have been absolutely insane. Even Sky was laughing at getting out of one of them. Some missed shots from...

I like how Styer is playing. Mickey is really good and getting better, he'll be a force in the future.

Paging @Fatboy... 👍

Just had this same issue cancelling (runs out end of december so i can watch MC). Forced me to chat with a rep, who i then had to tell at least 4 times that i did not want whatever offer they had and to cancel the subscription. Kept trying to give me fight packages even after I explained I don't...

Fitness is important in anything. Though i wouldn't call it a gene, they put in the work. Even pro gamers work out to improve performance. Healthy body, healthy mind and vice-versa. That spiral goes in both directions though and down is always easier.
